` 'IMPRovrzn TUBLAR REFRIGERATOR.

The Schedule 'referred to in these Letters Patent andmaking part of the same.

I, ADAM nen), `of Burnie, in the countyfof Erie, and Stateof New York, have invented 1 certain Im- "wproveI-entsuin Tubular Refrigerators, of which 'the following isha specification.

` rIl his invention relates tothat' classof refrigerators which-is made to revolve; and consists in the combination and arrangement4 of the several parts, as hereinafter more fully described.

l In describing, I referto the drawings, which' make part of this specification, and'which illustrate myin vention more fully. Y, p p I 'Figure 1 represents the refrigerator s ecured within vi'ameA, in a side view.` t l i Figure 2 show stherefrigerator in a cut through its build the same'of sta'ves, secured with hoops like a `barrel.` y

G C aretwo pivots; thesame are secured one in the centre of ,the top, andv one in the centre of the bottom 'of the refrigerator.' They have their bearings in the .p

frame A, as seen inv iig; 1.

The object of constructing andsecnring the refrig- 'erator in this manner is Nto provide for easily turning the same withintheiiame A. v L A D D are two doors in the top of the refrigerator, one'le'adingto the ice-compartir!ent` the other to E is the ice-compartment. The same isi-provided with a.waste'pipe, F, for the purpose of carrying' oi'l the water produced .from the melting of theiice. This water is caught at the bottom of the refrigerator in a vat G. f

It will be'observed that in catching the waste water within, the refrigerator -will keep the water cool and may therefore be made useful.

The ice-compartment E is in commhnicationwith.

the storage rooms'by means of opening I.

.i DD are two side doors, arranged opposite each other.' A Y It will be observed that providing a tubular refrigerator with/more than onev sidet door, will ,enable the housekeeper to get at things stored'withiri the refrigerator more easily, and that a tubular refrigerator o'ers more storage-room, with the same amountof mayterial used than asquare one. 4

' H is a number of steady-pins, 'on shelves K, and resting iii-brackets, as plainly seeninig.

Having thus fully described my invention, .Idesire to secure by' Letters Patent` r As my in1prove1nent,'the refrigerator B, pivoted to the frame A, and provided with top doors D D, and

.inside doors D D', ice-compartment E, vwaste-pipoF, vatjGr, and shelves K K, attached tobracket-s on the side of thel refrigerator, by means of pins H, all constructed as lferein described, for'the purposes specilied.
